For Tara.

I had some really sad news today. My good friend Tara Llanes had a nasty crash whilst racing in the last round of the Jeep KOTM series yesterday in Beever Creek, USA.

Unfortunatly, Tara got airlifted off the hill with a broken back and neck, she suffered damage to her spinal cord. She underwent major spinal surgery last night, but still has no feeling in her legs. We all understand the large element of risk we take when we step on our bikes. But today has really brought those risks closer to home. It is important that we NEVER say NEVER and root for Tara, becuase she'll need it now, more than ever. If you want to send her an e-mail, please do so through her website; www.tarallanesracing.com

Tara. You are a jedi, don't ever forget that. My prayers, love and thoughts are with you, Polly and your Mum so much right now.

I love you dearly and I am not alone in saying that.
